Profile:
Although he started his international career in disappointing style (taking 1/150 against India in 1991-92 in his first Test), struggled in the wake of shoulder surgery in 1998 and was dropped from the eleven in the Caribbean shortly afterwards, Warne has occupied a central place in Australian teams for the majority of the last decade. Moreover, he has terrorised batsmen across the globe and has spearheaded many Australian victories. To complement his natural skills, his bleached blond hair and larger than life personality on the field have earned him the nickname of "Hollywood" and a love-hate relationship with crowds that ensures that he draws spectators through the turnstiles almost wherever he plays. As is often the case with the greatest cricketing stars, Warne has been no stranger to controversy over his career and his exploits off the field have consistently made headlines. The most infamous instance of this occurred in December 1998 when he was forced to acknowledge revelations that he and Australian teammate Mark Waugh had accepted money from an Indian bookmaker while on tour in Sri Lanka in 1994. Around all such exploits, though, he has continued to maintain a status as one of the world's most fearsome bowlers, a notion underlined most clearly of all in the closing stages of the 1999 World Cup when his brilliance earned him dual Man of the Match awards and underpinned Australia's memorable performances in both the Semi-Final against South Africa and the Final against Pakistan. More recently, he has become Australia's highest ever wicket taker in Tests (eclipsing Dennis Lillee's milestone of 355 while on tour in New Zealand in 2000) and has been afforded the glittering accolade of being anointed as one of Wisden's Five Cricketers of the Century.
